1. Re: CS5 Bridge "No Items to display"
Curt Y Dec 6, 2011 7:36 AM (in response to Uncle_OoK)When it comes to network drives I come up short with answers. But since it worked before it is probably one of 3 things.
Usually "no items to Display" means that you are looking for items in a directory that has not been indexed. Indexing occurs when you visit the folder and the spinning arrow in lower left corner stops. Try indexing one folder then doing a search in that directory to see if that is the problem.
Rather than indexing each folder individually you can click "include non-indexed files". This will be slow as it will index everything. To see if this is happening look at the screen and you should see messages "indexing xxx folder" as it moves through the list.
If indexing is not happening, or it is indexed and not finding anything it would probably be a permission issue. See if you can write a keyword to a file, if not that is the problem.
If permission a problem try right clicking on Bridge icon and choosing "run as administrator". If that works you will know what the problem is.

2. Re: CS5 Bridge "No Items to display"
Tijazap Jan 4, 2012 10:09 AM (in response to Uncle_OoK)This is currious. I am having almost the exact same problem. New Win7-64 box and suddenly no items found. I get this on local drives as well. So far it seems to be confined to when I use the show subfolders command. We need a fix for this one. I rebuilt the cache and also noted a string of errors in AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Bridge\ CS5\Cache\data\"machinename.err" Bridge does seem much happier running as an administrator. Is there a way to permit that when it's set to launch at startup.

I have user-PC.err in that same file, but it is 0 byte. Are your errors significant?
One computer guy made an observation that folders made on a different computer may have permission problems. Since you have a new computer this may be the case. You might try clicking on a specific folder that has problems and choosing run as administrator.
You can set the program to default to run as administrator, but you do loose some virus protection I am told.
Usually permission problems only occur if trying to access an external drive, or network access.
Did you transfer old programs to new machine, or do a new install?

Tijazap Jan 5, 2012 8:01 AM (in response to Curt Y)All the errors were the same but there was a lot of them.
[ERROR] mysql_embedded: Can't open file: 'filesystem_nodes.MYI' (errno: 144)
I have no idea what they mean. After a couple of cache flushes prompted by a different message from Bridge saying the cache may be corrupt, I seem to have normal functions back.
The install was brand new. I'm still thinking there is something different in the way Win7-64 handles permissions as opposed to XP-pro where I never had a problem.
